Britain and the European Union: Is reform or exit the destination?

As part of the Future of Diplomacy Project's second annual
Europe Week, Douglas Alexander, the Shadow Secretary of
State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, serving in Ed
Miliband’s opposition Labour Party government in the UK House of
Commons will deliver remarks on Britain's current, tenuous
relationship with the European Union.

Before accepting his current role in the shadow cabinet, he
previously served in senior UK ministerial positions between 2001
and 2010, including as UK Secretary of State for International
Development (2007-10), as UK Governor of the World Bank and as
Minister of State for Europe (2005-06).
